A permanent resident of Paphos, who wishes to remain anonymous, donated €10,000 to the municipality to help those in need in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, the authority announced.
“A European resident has contributed to the municipality of Paphos the sum of €10,000 in the form of gift boxes, in order to help those that are having problems to survive in these difficult times due to the pandemic,” a spokesman said.
The resident contacted the mayor, Phedonas Paedonos, to convey his intention and asked that his name not be used publicly.
“The mayor warmly congratulated our fellow citizen on his latest gesture which he said is an act of practical solidarity and genuine altruism, and also an additional proof of his sincere love for Paphos and its inhabitants.”
The resident also donated a similar amount in gift bags last Easter.
Having just recently moved to Paphos to set-up a non-profit Kitchen, I find it a beautiful place with beautiful people.
Seeing such a great act of kindness and generosity really touched me, whoever you are I salute you!
